Ousted WeWork Co-Founder Adam Neumann has acquired two home sites on the Bal Harbour Marina for $44 million. Neuman recently sold his estate in Northern California for $22.4 million and joined the influx of wealthy investors moving to South Florida. The off-market transaction was overseen by Tony Imbesi, who represented the seller, and Brett Harris of Douglas Elliman represented the buyer.
The double-lot property spans 50,000 SF and offers 360’ of waterfront with multiple boat slips. A 14,500 SF home is under construction on one lots which Neuman plans to finish.
Neuman purchased the property from real estate investor Joseph Imbesi, who also owns the former site of the Bal Harbour Yacht Club which is listed for $65 million on the tip of the Bal Harbour Marina. Imbesi purchased the shares of the Bal Harbour Club in the 1990s for $19,000,000. The Bal Harbour Club owned 5.5 acres on the beach, where Oceana Bal Harbour is now located and 10 acres on the bay, where the $65 million lot of land sits. The properties were owned by the proprietary members of the club and they wanted to sell so Imbesi bought all of the individual shares to gain control of the company and the assets that it owned.
